I have a fun little snack/appetizer to share with you guys today! It involves the highest quality and most delicious cheddar cheese you can ever imagine, Cabot’s Cheddar Cheeses. Before we get into the recipe, let me tell you why Cabot is such a great company:

You may have heard of the combination of apple pie and cheddar, sounds weird, but it is extremely yummy, except it’s unhealthy. Fortunately I’ve come up with my own healthy twist on this combination for a quick snack or a crowd-pleasing appetizer! The Sweet apple and Sharp Cheddar flavors go hand-in-hand, complementing each other very nicely! These Stuffed Apple Skins are so easy and simple to make, anyone can make them!
